TABLE OF CONTENTS

1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     On November 9, 2007, Arizona Land Income Corporation (the “Company”) and POP Venture, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Pacific Office Contributor”) affiliated with The Shidler Group, entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to their Master Formation and Contribution Agreement dated as of October 3, 2006 (as previously amended, the “Master Agreement”). Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the Company will form an umbrella partnership (the “UPREIT”) in which the Company is the sole general partner. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement (“Closing”), the UPREIT will acquire ownership interests in up to nine office properties, which comprise approximately 2.4 million square feet of office space.

     The Amendment modifies the Master Agreement to allow the Company to declare a special dividend to address compliance with annual income distribution requirements for real estate investment trusts for 2007 and alters the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement. Pacific Office Contributor’s obligation to contribute, as part of the transactions, its 7.5% interest in one office property has been eliminated, leaving ownership interests in nine properties still to be contributed. As a result, the gross asset value of the contributed property interests has been reduced from approximately $568 million to approximately $563 million. Additionally, the parties agreed to substitute an unsecured promissory note of the UPREIT in the principal amount of $12 million for an equivalent value of the limited partnership units in the UPREIT to be issued to Pacific Office Contributor in connection with the transactions. It has also been agreed that capital investments made by Pacific Office Contributor after September 30, 2007 will increase the aggregate value of its contribution to the UPREIT in the transactions. The increase in the contribution values from these capital investments and from any lender-required escrows cannot result in the UPREIT issuing limited partnership units in excess of $151.51 million. The UPREIT will issue promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the capital investment costs for which limited partnership units are not issued.

     Under the Amendment, at the time of the consummation of the transactions, the Company will sell 180,000 shares of common stock, in addition to the previously agreed upon $5 million subscription, to individuals or entities designated by Pacific Office Contributor at a price of $7.50 per share, or $1,350,000 in the aggregate. The Company will also grant options to individuals or entities designated by Pacific Office Contributor to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $7.50 per share. The options will only be exercisable for the three months after the transactions are consummated. The Amendment also allows the common stock of the Company to be listed on a national securities exchange other than the American Stock Exchange following the transactions. The parties have also agreed that the option to acquire additional office proprieties which Pacific Office Contributor will be required to grant to the Company has been extended to include properties acquired through June 30, 2008.

     The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

     On November 9, 2007, the Company and Pacific Office Contributor also agreed to the Master Amendment to Contribution Agreements, which is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

     In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement and the other agreements and instruments described in this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a definitive proxy statement that will be sent to the Company’s shareholders seeking the requisite approval for the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement and the other agreements and instruments described in this Current Report on Form 8-K. THE COMPANY URGES INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS TO BE FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRANSACTIONS. At the appropriate time, shareholders will be able to obtain a free copy of the definitive proxy statement and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov . The definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents will also be available, free of charge, from the Company by directing such request to Ms. Deanna Barela at (602) 952-6821 or dbarela@phsg.com. Shareholders are urged to read the proxy statement and other relevant material when they become available before making any voting decisions with respect to the transactions.

     The Company and its respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the shareholders of the Company in connection with the transactions. Information about the Company and its directors and executive officers, and their ownership of the Company common stock, is set forth in the proxy statement for the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which was filed with the SEC on November 14, 2005. Additional information regarding the interests of those persons may be obtained by reading the proxy statement when it becomes available.
